Course Main Course, Side Dish
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 1.5 tbsp nutritional yeast
- ¾ tbsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 3 cup flour divided
- Water
- 1 cup Buffalo Sauce
- Cauliflower
Preheat oven to 425°F (220℃)
Create a wet batter by mixing 1 1/2 c flour and add water until you achieve a pancake-like consistency. (Slightly more runny than thick but thick enough to stick to the cauliflower).
Create the dry mix by mixing 1 1/2 c flour, nutritional yeast and spices.
Take about 10 florets (if larger, 8 florets) from the cauliflower head and wash thoroughly.
Dip each piece in the wet batter, coat completely in the dry batter and lay each piece on a flat tray. To avoid sticking, you can add foil or use a nonstick spray on your tray.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake.
After half an hour, take the tray out and let the florets cool down for a few minutes.
You can place the florets in a bowl at this point, add 1 cup of buffalo sauce and toss before placing bake into the oven for another ten minutes.
Take out the oven, let cool down and enjoy!
